8630	uuid string generator accepts invalid uuids	record.nctu.cis91@…	Andy Tompkins	"I've tried stream operator and string generator to convert string into uuids.[[BR]]
But the string generator one accepts some incorrect uuid representation.[[BR]]
For example, with the following strings:
* ""0000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000""
* ""------------------------------------""

String generator accepts but produce strange content, but stream operator will refuse them.

Maybe it's better to throw exception in such case?[[BR]]
To tell user such string is not a correct uuid representation."	Bugs	closed	Boost 1.66.0	uuid	Boost 1.53.0	Problem	fixed	uuid string generator
